Rupert Murdoch has fired the publisher responsible for the OJ Simpson book debacle "If I Did It".
Judith Regan has made many controversial and unwise decisions as a publisher for Murdoch's empire, but none so egregious as this one. Fox narrowly missed adding insult to injury by having a matching television show. Thankfully, someone came to their senses in time.
